HAVE YOUR SAY

Since July 2016 I have been on long term sick from work and have found solace in my allotment. Being short of money to buy Christmas presents, I delighted my friends and family by turning my allotment produce into jams, preserves, pickles and chutneys. I then made them into Christmas hampers using pretty baskets garnered from local charity shops. Eat your heart out Fortnum & Masons! They were so popular that it will be a yearly tradition from now on!

TONY SAYS; And what lovely presents they are too, Linda. Just shows what can be done on a small budget.
